My students struggle with foundational skills in reading. They are learning new sounds, and new vocabulary. Using an iPad will help them primarily in two ways, sound development, vocabulary acquisition. Using a listening center is a scientifically proven method of developing these skills in ESL students. The iPad can be used in a reading center with six students, to help them develop phonics skills, and visuals to support vocabulary acquisition. They will have the benefit of both seeing and hearing new sounds and words. The center will rotate reaching all of my kids on their varied levels of development. Please help me to help my students develop their love of reading by becoming successful in foundational reading skills. Readers become leaders!!
